Tamar Kordzaia addresses the U.S. University Hospital and sends an official letter for Mikheil Saakashvili to recieve a medical examination - I am personally sending a request to the Emory University Hospital for them to express readiness to provide comprehensive medical care to Mikheil Saakashvili," said Kordzaia
With this step, with the opinion of objective and unbiased doctors, Kordzaia said, it will be clear once and for all whether the treatment the third president is receiving in Georgia is adequate and whether the treatment will bring results.
"You know, last week I asked the Minister of Justice to call for a comprehensive medical evaluation at Emory University Hospital in the United States if they think Saakashvili bribed all the doctors in Georgia. In this regard, I received a completely mocking response. Rati Bregadze asked me what kind of medical education I had. So I answer that I have the same that he has. As a lawyer I appeal to him that Mikheil Saakashvili as a participant of the process has the right to demand an expertise and the court must satisfy him. Due to the protraction of the trial and the inaction of the Minister of Justice, I, as a member of the Georgian Parliament, personally send a request to the Emory University Hospital expressing my readiness to conduct a comprehensive medical examination of Mikheil Saakashvili," said Kordzaia.
As of the 13th day of Viva Med, the result of the medical report of Mikheil Saakashvili is still unknown. The clinic has not yet made the conclusion public. The doctors of the third president say a complete rehabilitation at Viva Med is impossible and Mikheil Saakashvili must be immediately transferred to a foreign clinic.
